AN ELOPING WIFE NEAR DEATH.
Determined to Kill Herself Because
Her Lover Committed Suicide.

Yesterday Mrs Mamie Rodgers q rather good
looking woman, who lives at No. 1241 Delaware
avenue southwest made two desperate attempts
to commit suicide, and it is probable that the sec
ond attempt may result fatally. She is from
King George County, Va, where it is said she de-
serted her husband and two children nearly year
ago. For several months she had been living with
George Little, painter, on Delaware avenue.
Little was suspected Of having been with "Billy"
Williams when Officer Arnold was killed In Alex
andria On the night OF May Ii, but the police
found that he was not out OF the city that
night. Subsequently Little enlisted in the Navy,
and about week since he committed suicide by
Jumping overheard in Hampton Roads. Since the
publication OF the circumstances OF his death Mrs.
Rodgers mas been deSpOndent, and expressed her
determlnatlon to die. Yesterday morning she pro-

NEW COLLECTOR APPOINTED.
The North Carolina Internal Revenue
Middle Settled by the President.

The internal revenue trouble in North Carolina
has been settled by the action Of the President in
appointing Kerr Craige, OF Salisbury, N. Co. the
collector for the new fifth district The three COL
lection districts In North Carolina known as the
fourth, fifth, and sixth were recently consolidated
and two new districts created, named the fourth
and fifth. The new fifth district included the
whole territory Of the old sixth, with the addi-
ton OF six counties taken from the old fifth. The
effect OF the consolidation was to leave Maj. c.
DoWd, the collector OF the old sixth district,
the only resident collector in the new fifth, and
10 make Collectors Marlborough and Boyd as resi-
dents OF the new fourth district The recent order
OF consolidation designated collector Boyd, resi-
dent OF the fourth district to be the collector OF
the new fifth district, In which Maj Dowd resided.

Henderson recently called upon the President and

was to select new man. 1t was conceded that

A New Order for Direction Of the
Street Railway Companies.

An important order was made by the District
Commissioners to-day. 1t authorizes the street
railway companies to pave between the tracks
with asphalt blocks, and between the rails OF each
track with granite blocks at the street intersec-
tiOns. In his letter recommending this order Capt.
Eugene Griffin states:
''The law requires that inter-track spaces shall
be paved with Belgian blocks, in case the Commits
SOners so direct and at street Intersections the
pavement between the tracks OF such railway
shall conform to the pavement used upon such
street or avenue The railway companies contend
that this last quoted law does not apply to inter
rail spaces though the Commissioners order OF
May IA so cOnStrueS 1t. They all seem
willing to pave with granite block and
asphalt block, as have previously recommended.
In case the companies refuse to comply with the
Commissioners orders and the District undertakes
the work at the expense OF the companies, we are
met with the difficulty that there are no Belgian
blocks on hand, and the use Of granite blocks
might lead to difficulties.
Asphalt or distillate pavementS could be laid by
the District at street intersections, but in my
opinion the asphalt pavement is preferable for
such work."
Capt. Griffin thinks that the asphalt block
pavement, the first cost Of which Is less than the
Belgian block. fs 30 far the public is concerned,
the best pavement OF tie two for lnter-track pur
poses.

Warrington Social Circles to be Startled
A SENSATION CASE TO BE BROUGHT INTO COURT

Warrington Social Circles to be Startled
A SENSATION CASE TO BE BROUGHT INTO COURT
HERE.
washington special to the New York World,
June ii, says: "a case OF a somewhat sensational
nature is about to be brought up in the courts
here. A former chief clerk of one OF the Depart
ments is involved. He has achieved quite a repu-
tatlon and Is popular in social circles. For the
past twelve or fifteen years he has been men,
per OF the house lold OF q widow who kept swell
boarding house In the West End, and has always
been looked upon as q confirmed bachelor. Re
Gently he quit his Old-time landlady and took up
lodgings elsewhere 1t is due to this act that the
sensation has come to the surface. Certain state
ments made by the former lan0lady's family led
TO an Investigation, which developed the
fact that the Chief clerk and the widow
were married in Baltimore on August 6, 1873.
The marriage, however, was never made public.
There Is said to be quite romance connected with
the early life OF the lady whose name Is connected
with the affair. How much this romance has had
10 90 with the secrecy maintained In this instance
Is hard TO determine. But 1t Is certain that the
parties have been entitled to occupy the position
or husband and wife for fourteen years, and have
lived In the same house, mingling with the other
inmates OF the house without their marriage ever
having been suspected. The lady Is still good
looking intelligent and bears an excellent reputa-
ton. since the former chief clerk has changed his
lodgings IL Is said the matter will come up In the
courts In the form OF suit for divorce, when all
the facts Will be made known.
